A META-ANALYSIS OF BONE TRACER SCINTIGRAPHY IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF CARDIAC AMYLOID ATTR AND AL, COMPARING HMDP WITH DPD AND PYP SENSITIVITY AND SPECIFICITY IN BIOPSY PROVEN CASES

Abstract

Bone tracer HMDP is equivalent of similar sensitivity and specificity as DPD and PYP for differentiating ATTR cardiac amyloidosis from AL and can be used with equivalent confidence.
